A '''Youngster''' (Japanese, Generations I/II (katakana): '''たんパンこぞう'''; Generations III-V (hiragana): '''たんぱんこぞう'''; translation: ''Shorts Youngster'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. They are depicted as average young boys wearing caps, and short pants.


They use a variety of Pokémon, but they tend towards common ones that are caught early in their respective games. In {{2v2|Black|White}}, a significant amount of Youngsters specialize in {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, likely due to the absence of {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s in the [[Unova]] region. Some will give out {{ball|Ultra}}s when defeated.
